Application Summary

This design utilizes two hydraulic jacks and provides maximum structural stability. The jacks, located on each side of the car, are either single-stage or telescopic. The appropriate jack type is determined by the amount of travel and the project conditions. The single-stage jacks are popular for two-stop arrangements, while telescopic jacks are generally used for three- and four-stop projects.

Advantages

  • No jack hole is required. This eliminates the cost of drilling and the risk of oil contamination.
  • Accommodates front and rear openings in any configuration.
  • Available for both low and high capacity cars.
Code year adoptions and local code variations may affect the hoistway size. Verify all dimensions with MEI prior to construction.

P Pit Depth = 4′ -0″ • O Minimum Overhead (See Below), *Denotes Minimum Overhead = 12′ -5″ • Cab Height = 8′ -0″ • **Hoistway width may vary for two-stage.

Guidelines for determining overhead required:

For 1 Stage Jack:

  1. Car Speed = Up to 150 FPM
  2. Top Overtravel = 5″
  3. Bottom Overtravel = 12″
  4. Pit Depth = 4′ -0″
  5. Cab Height = 8′ -0″

For 2 Stage Jack:

  1. Car Speed = Up to 150 FPM
  2. Top Overtravel = 12″
  3. Bottom Overtravel = 10′
  4. Pit Depth = 4′ -0″
  5. Cab Height = 8′ -0″

One Stage Jack Overhead Requirement:
Minimum of 12′ -0″ overhead required for 12′ -0″ of travel and under. If over 12′ -0″ travel, overhead must equal or be greater than total travel.

Two Stage Jack Overhead Requirement:
Minimum of 12′ -8″ overhead required for 20′ of travel and under. Add 1/2” to 12′ -8″ for ever additional 1″ of travel over 20′ -0″
